,"If so you could identify the structure of the url and instruct your sitemap generator program to ignore the undesirable url"
How can I do that?

Are you referring to duplicate page content? if so this could be down to the design template of your site. i.e same header, sidebar, footer on each page e.c.t .if so I would not worry to much about it as long as the main content is different on each page, I f you are referring to pages that are identical this can be produced by php software creating duplicate pages i.e /page1 could also be /something else, If so you could identify the structure of the url and instruct your sitemap generator program to ignore the undesirable url, or webmaster tools has a section for this also i believe.

1500 pages.
So what can I do about that?

How large is your site?
do a site: search for your site, if you are unaware of duplicate content it could be URLs with parameters appended getting indexed or https pages getting indexed.

Duplicate Page title - PHP Experts!
After running a crawl diagnostics i was surprised to see 336 duplicate page titles. But i am wondering if it is true or not. Most of them are not a page at all but a .php variation. for example: The following are all the same page, but a different limit on viewing listings. Limiting your view to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 as you choose. .com/?lang=en&limit=5 .com/?lang=en&limit=5&limitstart=10
Technical SEO | | nahopkin
.com/?lang=en&limit=5&limitstart=15
.com/?lang=en&limit=5&limitstart=20
.com/?lang=en&limit=5&limitstart=25 Same type of things are going on all over the site causing 228 duplicate content errors and the already mentioned 336 duplicate pages. But is "crawl diagnostic telling the truth" or is it just some php thing? I am not a php expert so any input would be much appreciated. What should i do?0
